The Tampa Bay Rays are one of the newest teams in the league. They were placed in the ultra competitive American League East and play teams like the Yankees and Red Sox many times throughout each season. Because they play in such a tough division, catching a Rays game allows fans to see premier baseball in vacation like setting.

Tampa Bay Rays History

Major League Baseball needed to expand its number of teams to create more parody in their divisions and also to fill out the new playoff format adopted after the strike in 1994. The Devil Rays were founded in 1998 along with the Diamondbacks of Arizona as part of this aggressive expansion. Once these teams were founded, an expansion draft led them to fill out their rosters.

The Devil Rays used their expansion draft very well, in the mold of the previous Florida expansion team, the Florida Marlins. This means that the Rays got a good core group of veterans to supplement the young talent they were sure to accumulate with high draft picks. However, this venture did not fare as well because all the veterans this club picked were on the down turn of their careers.

However, the Rays hardships were rewarded in high draft picks for the organization. By accumulating so many great picks, the Rays have built one of the youngest and most powerful teams in the league to combat their division rivals, the New York Yankees. Great ball players like Carl Crawford, Evan Longoria, and BJ Upton have all been added over the years to this team's lineup card.

Other Tampa Bay Teams

Tampa Bay is a great resort city located on the gulf side of the Florida panhandle and has three major professional sports teams associated with it. Other than the Rays, the people of Tampa can go to National League Hockey games at the St. Pete Time Forum. The Lighting have recently won a Stanley Cup in 2004 and were one of the fastest expansion teams to win a cup. With players like Peter Lecavalier and Martin St. Louis, the Lighting look to rebound from a down season in 2010.

The other team in Tampa is the Buccaneers. This team is situated in NFC South conference of the National Football League and has perennially been one of the worst teams in history. However, they did have their golden age under John Gruden in 2003 when they won their first and only Super Bowl title. The Buccaneers from this team are all long gone and the franchise now rests on a second year quarterback named Josh Freeman.
